The blog post that goes like this...

Monty Python's Spamalot," a loose - and loony - adaptation of the 1975 film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," won the top prize at last night's Tony Awards, adding a Tony for best musical to a résumé that already includes a $27 million advance, international press coverage and more knights in tights than any other show on Broadway.

Watching the Watchers
Australian blogger Tim Blair calls our attention to an amusing kerfuffle Down Under that involves this Web site. It began when Janet Albrechtsen, a columnist for the Australian newspaper, gave a plug to the work of Arthur Chrenkoff:

Good news [about Iraq] is not hard to come by. But when something positive does happen, it either gets filtered through the anti-war eyes of the media or is all but ignored. And that is what the terrorists are counting on. They must detest The Wall Street Journal. Each fortnight the paper's website (www.wsj.com) includes a round-up of good news from Iraq. It makes for refreshing reading, if only to even up the Iraq ledger.

Last week came the latest instalment, all 27 pages of it.

27 pages of good news, from the prestigious Wall Street Journal? We wanted to know more . . . but couldn't find it on their web site.

Boozie had a random 27 a few days ago...Thanks to Eden for alerting me to this:

Somehow, I ended up drinking about 27 pitchers of bowling alley beer. You know that shit is overcarbonated, right? I STILL have a headache from it. Also? when we came home from the bowling alley? after drinking 27 pitchers of beer? I drank one more.

Hee!

STATES’ RITES

YOU SAY TOMATO

Issue of 2005-03-21

Red Mascara doesn’t much care whether the tomato is a fruit or a vegetable, and if he were a less patient man he might have become bitter over the expedited treatment that the tomato seems to be receiving in the statehouse. For forty-four years, Mascara, who is eighty-two, and whose birth name is Joseph Mascari, has been lobbying for the recognition of an official Garden State song; New Jersey is the only state that doesn’t have one. Specifically, Mascara is campaigning on behalf of his own composition, “I’m from New Jersey,” which he wrote in 1960 and then recorded in twenty-seven different versions—symphonic, marching band, keyboard. Every legislative session, without fail, Mascara appears in Trenton to plead his case, passing out gumdrops around the statehouse—to no avail.

Lesson 27

While sitting in the Funeral Home, my brother grabbed this book, "How to Survive the Loss of a Loved One" and took a whirl at seeing what Lesson #27 would be. Seemed way too relevant to my life. ugh.


Lesson 27-Earlier Losses May Surface
You may have unresolved losses from the past, previous relationships, rejections, disappointments, hurts, and that wellspring of loss- childhood.,

A contemporary loss can release a prior unhealed loss.

You may feel that your responding unreasonably to a loss, in fact you may be healing past losses too.

Give yourself permission to mend it all.

Let it heal.

Make peace with your past.

If we could have only cut the $27 million....

On Tuesday, DeBenedetti cast a 10th vote for a second legal step, but he said he wouldn't do so a third time without Giambra agreeing to deeply cut spending, and set a goal of $27 million. That's the amount the county would give up if the sales tax went to just 9 percent.
